Roberto M. Garcia, Jr. (APlaintiff@) is a state prisoner proceeding pro se and in forma

20

pauperis in this civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. ' 1983. On September 19, 2016,

21

Plaintiff filed what the Court construes as a request for a copy of docketed documents. (ECF

22

No. 102). According to Plaintiff, it has been almost two months since he has received any

23

documents or notices from the Court.

24

Upon review of the docket, it appears that Plaintiff stopped being served with

25

documents once the Court granted Plaintiff’s motion to appoint counsel (ECF No. 76).

26

However, Plaintiff’s Counsel was only appointed for the limited purpose of (1) assisting

27

Plaintiff to bring a motion to compel responses and documents from the CDCR that the CDCR has

28

claimed are privileged; and (2) assisting Plaintiff with preparing for and participating in the August
1

Plaintiff’s Counsel was not obligated to assist with or

1

16, 2016 settlement conference.

2

participate in any other aspect of the case. Id. So, it appears that Plaintiff should never have

3

stopped receiving copies of the documents that were being filed in his case.

Id.

4

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that the Clerk of Court is directed to send Plaintiff a

5

copy of every document that has been filed in this case since May 25, 2016 (ECF Nos. 76-102).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
